8th April

So I'll explain what happened wwith the job. We changed what we were selling and I was now working with charity teams, all the guys from optus were still there but we were just seperated into teams. So I did one day of it, we work on the street with a red savethechildren t-shirt. Its still all commision though. I enjoyed it more than door-to-door to be honest. But no sales. I talked to Mark about the $400 from last week and he wasn't prepared to pay it because I was off on monday, and on wednesday my phone went dead so the rest of the team waited for me, but I took off once I'd finished as I expected the others to do so. And also the thing on friday - altho they still thort I worked a whole day. I said to him I worked full days both of those days - but he was like I've only got your word. So he said he'd pay $200 instead. And for the next week the arrangement was gone, I would have had to wait till thursday for the $200 becuase you get paid for the week before. The next day I rang up in the morning and said I wouldn't be continuing. So basically I would have had to be re-trained to learn the new pitch for signing ppl up to savethechildren, wait till thursday to get payment, even though I'm due payment for some of the optus sales I did, and obviously I need money faster than that - its all just dodgy and bullshit becuase their investing in me and they don't want to have to pay more money than neccessary. Mark said he would pay for the outstanding payments, so we'll see on thrusday if it goes through.
But I went back to the cafe and they said they'll probably be able to get me something.
And i'vew been on seek.com.au looking for work. Btw father, did you pay in money to my ISA account because its gone up and it just says interest credited - but its like 70pound!
Apart from that been having fun nights with boys from hostel &girls, we went out last night etc.
But getting pretty sick of sydney, I miss the country-side and the feel of moving around, if I can get some money togther I might venture a little way up the coast and see some of the sights, like vineyards and the Myall lakes. Its also got a lot colder in sydney recvently and the clocks turned back the other day.
Just bit sick of the city life. But will get some money before doing anything.

Ok so see ya laterxxx
